Constructed in alabaster which has been masterfully carved; rising from octagonal bases, supporting fluted, garland draped pedestals, upon which rest handled ewers, in the neo-renaissance manner of Benvenuto Cellini, carved with vine leaves and grapes, maidens and birds; the lips of the ewers are in the form of dragons, with winged seraphs astride, with cascading foliates.
Italian, Circa 1870
